[Gambit]

always sits just a smidge below the half way mark on the gauge

oil temp usually sits between 96-112

Mine engine temp shows '9' and thats the max ive seen

The oil temp on my 16v runs between 98-112 and the water temp sits just over halfway then rises in traffic to about 3 1/4s. When the fan kicks in it goes back to halfway.

Sounds ok to me, why are you worried about it?

[dubslug]

temp sits just over half way and my warning light comes on, my old car the temp was just over a quater, just a bit worried thats all

Have you changed your thermostat?

[dubslug]

yeah its a new car, have changed the thermostat, radator water pump and everything else i can think of, maybe dodgy swith in the dials as if i hit the dash it either comes on if its off or the other way round off if its on??
should i worry??

What car is it?

[Mars Attacks]

the collant light flashes when the level of the coolant is too low. may need a slight top up, thats all

My cab runs between 86 and 96 oil temp and always sits at half way or less coolant temp wise.
